Open Secret
Shiraz–Cabernet Sauvignon
We couldn’t keep this one under wraps any longer. Our Open Secret Shiraz–Cabernet Sauvignon blend invites you to unveil an occult regional classic. While many wine regions around the world work to imitate the historic blends of Bordeaux, Australia has branded its own Down Under spin. By blending France’s powerhouse grape Cabernet Sauvignon with Australia’s signature Shiraz, you’re left with a robust red featuring refreshing herbal aromas and ripe dark fruit flavors. These two sun-loving varieties can be found growing side by side in the arid vineyards of South Eastern Australia, where long, hot summers and dry conditions concentrate their rich fruit flavors and soften their structure. Our blend is bold, balanced and best when served at room temperature alongside salty barbecue and Australian meat pies. This is a secret you’ll be thrilled to share.

WINE REGION:
![Outline of South Eastern Australia](https://images.firstleaf.com/taxons/3427/normal/Australia_South_Eastern.png?1693347241)
South Eastern Australia
Covering the entire southeastern third of the country, the South Eastern Australia designation is a vast area (over 1,200 miles long and encompassing the regions of South Australia, New South Wales and Tasmania). Many of Australia's best wines are made here. From the stunning Shiraz produced around Adelaide to the luscious Sémillons of the Hunter Valley, and from the fragrant Pinot Noirs of Tasmania to the lush Chardonnay of Riverina, nearly every grape variety and wine style flourishes in South Eastern Australia, basking in the sun-kissed Mediterranean climate and rich, varied soils.

Oak
The hallmark aroma of eucalyptus reveals that this is undoubtedly an Aussie red. The body is big and broad with soft acidity and a noteworthy tannic structure. Oak and plum fill out the mid-palate before candied strawberry brings us home with a fruity finish.
